What would the image of Korea be for the people from abroad?
In the past, Korean used to be remembered for some of its dishes like Kimchi, Bibimbap and Bulgogi. And now, with the wind of Korean wave, it began to be remembered for celebrities, i-dol, K-pop, dramas, and etc.
On the other hand, its image is not always nice because it has been divided into two parts historically. It is remained as the only one county which has not yet unified in the world.
In case of breaking out the war, both sides of Korea spend lots of money every year and have people join the armies to prepare for it.
Korea is, unfortunately, a divided nation and in the condition of an armistice.
That is a Korea's sad image. However, I expect to blow new wind after overcoming this pain.
New wind is blowing with news and articles from different countries around the world. It is about the news of Manhee Lee, a peace activist.
A man who is standing as a prime mover for the peace agreement, he is a Korean, called Manhee Lee.
He has been traveled lots of countries to meet presidents, politicions, reporters and religious leaders to bring peace in the world. Many of them agreed his idea and decided to work with him by signing the witten agreement of peace.
Recently, he visited Guatemala and had an opportunity to lay a white rose on the Palm of Peace! That was a great honor in the country and actually he was the second person who did it from Korea after UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. Also, he received the letter of appreciation from the government of Guatemala.
How could he do such a nice work that anyone has never done before?
He is saying this peace work is not just his idea but God's. So he says those successful results are not his but God's.
What would that mean?
I thought of what he mentioned over and over to understand and became to know his point. If there is God, he must long to have peace in the world. That would be God's wish and disire who created the world.
Interestingly, his name means the full of light. Can he bring the real light to the world? I hope so.

I hope that the wind of peace from overseas blows to my country, Korea, so that we can end war, and live in peaceful Korea.
